The ST-MA2 is a compact audio monitor amplifier with control inputs to mute or reduce the gain of its output. This module may be used in conjunction with other RDL® modules to configure automatic mixing systems or may be used alone as a single‑speaker monitor amplifier. The ST‑MA2 is typically used to drive a small tabletop or overhead monitor speaker in a conference room, boardroom, courtroom, public forum panel or similar installation. The ST‑MA2 is ideally suited for use in automatic mixing systems due to its control inputs.
The line‑level input may be wired balanced or unbalanced. The audio output will drive standard speakers from 4 to 45 Ω. Normal gain is preset by means of a trimmer on the module.
NOTE: Power supply is required.
